Transporting; Advice On How To Obtain A Good Cut - EMAK RIDER EL63 Manuel D'utilisation

WARNING!
Take care when beginning forward
movement on sloping ground to prevent the risk of tip-
ping up.
Reduce the forward speed before going on a slope, par-
ticularly downhill.

5.6 TRANSPORTING

WARNING!
If the machine is transported on a
truck or trailer, use suitable equipment for lifting and an
appropriate number of people for the weight involved
and the type of lifting system used. The machine must
never be lifted by rope and tackle. During transport,
lower the cutting deck, engage the parking brake and
fasten the machine securely to the hauling device with
ropes or chains.

5.7 ADVICE ON HOW TO OBTAIN A GOOD CUT

1. To keep a lawn green and soft with a good appearance, it
should be cut regularly without damaging the grass.
It is always better to cut the grass when dry.
2.
3. The blade must be in good condition and well sharpened
so that the grass is cut straight without any ragged edge
that leads to yellowing at the ends.
4. The engine must run at full speed, both to ensure a sharp
cut of the grass and to get the necessary thrust to push
the cuttings through the collector channel.
5. The frequency of mowing should be in relation to the rate
of growth of the grass, which should not be left to grow
too much between one cut and the next.
6. During hot and dry periods, the grass should be cut a little
higher to prevent the ground from drying out.
7. If the grass is very tall, it should be cut twice in a twenty-
four hour period. The first time at maximum cutting height,
possibly reducing the cutting width and the second cut at
the height desired.
8. The appearance of the lawn will improve if you alternate
the cutting in both directions.
9. If the collector channel tends to get blocked with grass,
you should reduce the forward speed since this may be
too high for the condition of the lawn. If the problem per-
sists, the probable causes are either the badly sharpened
blade or deformed wings.
10. Be very careful when mowing near bushes or kerbs since
these could distort the horizontal position of the cutting
deck, and damage its edge as well as the blade.
